Rebranding to ACE HOYTS Rockingham Begins This May

PERTH — HOYTS Cinemas has announced a renewed joint venture with ACE Cinemas to rebrand their Rockingham location as ACE HOYTS Rockingham starting this May. This move marks a further step in their partnership in Western Australia, according to a company statement released this week.

The collaboration between HOYTS, Australia’s largest cinema chain, and ACE, a long-standing exhibitor in WA, first began in October 2023. The partnership focuses on revitalising cinema experiences, with Midland Gate being the first to benefit from this collaboration.

Damian Keogh, CEO & President of HOYTS, expressed excitement about the venture, stating, “We’re excited to grow our partnership with ACE Cinemas at Rockingham,” highlighting the focus on delivering a high-quality cinema experience. Similarly, Jeremy Pye, General Manager of ACE Cinemas, noted their commitment to exceptional customer experiences, expressing confidence that Rockingham will continue to be a beloved local cinema.

Partnership Background and Future Plans

The revitalization of the Rockingham site follows a successful collaboration at Midland Gate. The cinema will upgrade its facilities in 2027, maintaining its status as a premier entertainment destination. ACE Club Members will transition to the HOYTS Rewards Loyalty programme, retaining benefits like ticket savings.

This announcement comes amidst a growing demand for enhanced cinema experiences in Australia, as moviegoers seek more engaging and comfortable environments. The refurbishment plans for ACE HOYTS Rockingham are set to further solidify its position in the market.

In addition to the rebranding, the venture will introduce state-of-the-art technology and luxury seating options to improve audience experience. The partnership aims not only to enhance the physical space but also to introduce new programming that caters to diverse audiences, including special events and themed movie nights. This comprehensive approach is designed to create a unique and appealing entertainment hub for the community, ensuring that the cinema remains a vibrant part of Rockingham’s cultural landscape.
